My friend Iva just told me a big secret: did you know that if you have a T-mobile account and live in the US you can text message to Czech/Slovakia for $0.20 per message (both incoming and outgoing messages)? The bad news is that I don’t have a T-mobile account but I thought some of you would find this information helpful….or maybe everyone but me knows about this already??
For further information visit T-mobile website.
CZ: Ma kamaradka Iva mi prozradila velike tajemstvi: vite, ze kdyz mate mobilovy ucet s T-mobile a zijete v USA, tak muzete textovat do Cech nebo na Slovensko za velmi nizke ceny? Prichozi a odeslane sms stoji pouhych $0.20! Spatna zprava je ta, ze ja T-mobile nemam, ale rikala jsem si, ze by tuto informaci nekdo z vas, ctenaru, ocenil….nebo to uz vsichni, krome mne, vi???
Pro blizsi informace se obratte na webove stranky T-mobilu.

Or just buy some Skype credit: you can send sms with Skype! 😉
I am using this ( http://gizmosms.com/ ) to send free text messages to my lovers in Argentina 😉 If you have iPhone, Blackberry Storm or other web enabled phones, you can send these messages directly from your phone….
If you have iPhone, Blackberry Storm or other web enabled phone, any instant messenger will allow you easily send text messages anywhere in the world for free…
To Vlastimil: but the Czech people still pay for that incoming text message if they don’t have a web enabled phone, right?
BTW, I have AT&T and I also pay $ 0.20 for outgoing and incoming text messages fr. CZ.
Jana, couple of years ago people in Czech did not pay anything for incoming messages. It may have changed . Simply send them a message asking them how much your pleasure has cost them 🙂
If you know which cell phone company your friends in Czech Republic are connected to, it is almost guaranteed to be free for you and for them to go to the website of the Czech operator company and send a SMS from there…
I hate paying for things….
Hey, there is also a free version of Tivo 😉
BTW, $0.20 per a message is a rip-off. it DOES NOT COST the phone company anything extra to send your SMS anywhere in the world. Their running expenses are the same regardless you are sending SMS or not.
I will suggest pres. Obama to nationalize cell phone companies as well… 😉 😉
and calls to Czechs are also cheap…..$0.02 per minutes… I pay $30.00 per months and have free unlimited calls anywhere to Western Europe.
Amazingly to Czech Rep. I have to pay $0.02/min but it is good as well. to call to a cellphone costs me $0.15/ minute which I don’t like… I am sure there are “workarounds” as well… Long live Free World ! 🙂
I mostly Skype to my parents….
yes, Skype is good and you can use a webcam .
wow, it really is as I was feared: I am the stooge and you guys know everything!!! It’s time for me to update the post!! The article currently looks like it was written in 1983…OK,later like….1992 😉
I just got on that web Vlastimil is sending SMS from and it says it is 0.12 cents a minute to Czech republic.
I have a T mobil and I do sent text msg sometimes.
It is easy.
If you have a Blackberry you can download Skype to go the web is http://www.iskoot.com.
good think is that you can call to your friends Pc from your phone and you don’t have to be home.:)
that’s good to know! Diky!
omlouvam se neni to .12 centu za minutu ale za text!
this one should be completely free:
